I hope you meant that it should _not_ be hard to fix :)

It should be hard to fix.

"Speaking louder won't make your point worthier."
In VW, we use Symbols for names and not strings.
One reason is
exactly that identity is faster than equality.

Subject: [Pharo-project] RuntimeStorage
Reply-To: Pharo-project(a)lists.gforge.inria.fr
Dear List,
This morning, Jannik and I were surprised by the class
RuntimeStorage.
RuntimeStorage>>initialize: capacity
byGroup := Dictionary new: 24.
byName := IdentityDictionary new: 10000.
elements := OrderedCollection new: capacity
Why byName reference an identify dictionary? Why not a dictionary?
Names are usually accessed through their name as a String
apparently
(e.g., importing Smalltalk packages keys entities with a String).
Should entities be accessed through a symbol instead of a string?
If entities are stored in an identity dictionary, then names must
be
accessed with a symbol. If entities are to be accessed with a
string,
then a dictionary should be used instead of an identitydictionary.
Cheers,
Alexandre
